‘Open the border!’ Pro-refugee group tries to breach Greek-Turkish border cordon (VIDEO)

Published time: 23 Jul, 2016 23:31

Clashes broke out in the Greek town of Kastanies as dozens of pro-refugee protesters rallied against the fence set up at the Turkish border and attempted to breach police lines. Authorities resorted to stun grenades and tear gas to stop the unruly crowd.

According to Greek media, on Saturday over 200 members of the group known as “No Border Camp” held a rally in Kastanies against the closed door policy. Chanting “open the border” and carrying placards reading “Beyond Borders” the demonstrators urged authorities to dismantle the fence set up on the Turkish border to prevent the entry of illegal migrants into Greece.

Tolerance of No Border Camp thin

Residents of Thessaloniki are running out of patience with activists taking part in the unauthorized, pro-refugee No Border Camp at the Aristotle University (AU), Kathimerini understands, while authorities of the University of Macedonia (UOM) are concerned about becoming the target of vandalism like the AU.

A demonstration staged in central Thessaloniki by activists on Thursday night did not go down well with locals. One observer told Kathimerini that participants carried large wooden poles and painted slogans on walls.

He added that the demonstrators had brought children into their ranks in a bid to gain sympathy for their cause. “But that’s impossible after what has happened over the past 10 days.”

On Thursday, around 150 self-styled anarchists attacked a building housing the Thessaloniki City Hall. The perpetrators, who targeted the premises of the EU’s Europe Direct Thessaloniki branch as well as the municipality’s administrative offices, caused damage to equipment, threw paint and sprayed slogans.

On Friday, the rector of the UOM, Achilleas Zapranis, ordered guards to close the faculty earlier than usual to avoid similar incidents.

Some of the Spanish participants in the camp were due to leave Friday, Kathimerini understands. Meanwhile, remaining activists – who include Greek, Italian and Dutch nationals – were to travel to Skouries in Halkidiki to protest against a foreign gold mine operating there.
On Saturday, camp participants are to travel to Evros in northern Greece to protest against the border fence that has been set up to stop migrants sneaking across the border.




COMMENT

“No Border Camp”, a group of 200 filthy commie cockroaches, demonstrate in Kastanies, in favour of invasion and rape of Europe.

They're professional agitators, moving from one protest to another, and apparently dragging children along.  That means they're either trust fund pieces of crap, or they're on benefits of some kind.  Sling them in cells long enough for them to be cut off benefits and remove the unfortunate children. Oh, and f*ck off the insanity of the Schengen borders and the EU, asap.

Where's Golden Dawn?

What I'd like to see Golden Dawn do to these morons isn't printable.

God, I'm sick of these idiots. 

If I were the police, I'd be firing live rounds on these cockroaches.

Found that quite emotionally moving.
These people are brave and amazing:  it's these Europeans that are standing up against nation-destroying oppression. 
They're the real deal, not those 'leftist' Champagne socialist journalists, academics and lawyer-politicians who serve capitalism, while undermining their own nation's working classes and paving the way to destruction of their indigenous European nations.
They're ordinary people up against the host of capitalist institutions that do not serve vital interests of Greeks as a people (this is replicated in all European societies).
The capitalist serving media portrays these guys as villains, but they're heroes and patriots.
If I were Greek, I'd vote for these guys.  The Ilias Kasidiaris cutie makes the entire Golden Dawn package even more attractive than it already is.   ;)
Golden Dawn pulled in the votes, finishing third in the late 2015 general election, although its members were in pre-trial detention (conveniently for the establishment).

Ilias Kasidiaris: You Won’t Turn Greece into a Ghetto of Illegal Immigrants


He got up and left, as was expected, the appointed Minister of the illegal immigrants, who didn't receive a single vote from the Greek people.

He was appointed and entered parliament and administers the country.

And he hid, as he does every time parliamentary scrutiny is exercised by Golden Dawn for this national crime which is committed with the illegal immigrants.

He sends us these here wretched handwritten papers, these wretched documents, where he states that SYRIZA ministers don't talk with racists.

They send us these despicable documents and hide, both the Minister and Tsipras, because they have committed crimes against Greece.

He did well to hide today, too.

We ask that you rid us of your pathetic presence in general, from these miserable acts, from your racism at the expense of the Greek citizens.

YOU should be ashamed!  YOU should be ashamed for selling out Greece!

Shame on you for turning Greece into an illegal immigrant storage house!

YOU should be ashamed!  You're the sell-out!

You're the sell-out and the laughing stock!

You betrayed the country and have no right to speak in here!

You embarrassments!

Your Prime Minister should go to the Pakistanis.

Your Minister should go to the Taekwondo (stadium) to hang out with the Pakistanis and stop taking up space in here.

He did well getting up and leaving because everything you're doing is illegal.

When Tsipras comes up here and says that it's not legal to send back the illegal immigrants, clearly, the man is an idiot.

["I'm going to turn off the microphone."]

No, Mr President, you're going to listen.

You didn't speak when the Minister refused to answer the parliamentary scrutiny.

As long as this country is being betrayed, as long as this country is being sold out, we will raise the tone in our voice and say the truth.

Here, at this time, there exists racism against the Greek citizens.

There's a government that wants to turn Greece into a ghetto of illegal immigrants.

There's a government that wants to make the Greek a minority in this country.

And this disgrace will not pass.

Golden Dawn will make sure, because today, Golden Dawn is the only voice that speaks out loud what every citizen wants to say.

Tsipras was saying earlier that no one is reacting in Kos and that everyone accepts what's happening.

He should ask Kammenos what happened when he went to Kos.

He should ask Avramopoulos, who the residents turned into an omelette.

He should ask all those who betrayed this country, who hides from parliamentary scrutiny, who make decisions at the expense of Greece.

They've worshipped the German financial oligarchy, because as you very well know, Merkel is the one, who imposed playing the game of the German industrialists, the start of the flows of illegal immigrants through Greece, so that they go to Northern Europe.

And today, they are transforming Greece into what Tsipras said, into a storage house.

If I was the one to say it, you would criticise me.

Another SYRIZA person has said something about 'toasted Moroccans'.

If Golden Dawn had used this type of language, you would all go out and say "lift their immunity using the 'anti-racism' law".

Now that the government is saying it?

What he said was true.  You want Greece to become a storage house, a storage house of millions of illegal immigrants, because, after, it will be much easier to sell out the country and the natural resources of our fatherland in a Europe that gives three billion euros to the Turks.

We're paying the Turks at this time three million euros, so they can send millions illegal immigrants to Greece.

Closed borders!  That's the solution.  For the borders to finally close.

And don't speak of humanitarians, because you're pseudo-humanitarians, because it's with your policy that little kids are drowning in the Aegean.

If the policy of closed borders existed, they would all remain at the Turkish coast, where there isn't any war nor are they facing any problem.

You're playing the American's game, who created the problem, who with their wars drove millions of people down the road to becoming refugees and illegal immigration, if you like.

You're playing the games of all those foreign powers who aim for enslavement of this country.

Your humanitarianism is phony and Golden Dawn denounces it.

Golden Dawn calls for the obvious, she calls for this country to finally implement legislation.

And what does the law say?

The opposite of what Tspiras is doing.

The law in Greece says that anyone who enters our territory illegally must be sent back to their country of origin.

And the man who wishes to be called Prime Minister appears here and says that deportations are illegal.

Where has such a thing ever been heard?

Who does he think he's addressing?  Baboons?

The deportations and expulsions of illegal immigrants are the only legal means which should be implemented to rid our fatherland of the gallows of illegal immigration.

But, as I said earlier, you're racists against Greeks.

You've reached the point where you made -- the Ministry of Justice -- a law where everyone who gives food to the Greek citizens will be charged before the Public Prosecutor.

You, who have given nothing to the Greek citizens, you've taken everything from the Greek citizens, you accuse us because we had State funding, we returned it to the Greek citizen through food distribution.

We denounce this policy of yours.

For this reason, we see you getting excited, it makes you crazy, you often get sick when from the floor representatives of Golden Dawn speak, because you fear the truth, you fear scrutiny against all the crimes you commit against Greece.

The recent example of France proved that multiculturalism, which you espouse, has died.  It doesn't exist.

Multicultural models in European nations and States don't exist.

In France, the nationalist party became the first party.  The same exact thing will happen with Golden Dawn in Greece, only we won't allow you to turn Greece into France.

Greece will remain a sovereign nation state, regardless of how much this reality is battled by the forces of globalisation, which are expressed by all the parties of parliament.

Let me not commit an injustice to the New Democracy who today acts sensitive -- allegedly -- on the issue of illegal immigrants.

From 1992 with Samaras who let all of Albania in Greece, later we had Prokopis Pavlopoulos who said: 

"We're proud that millions of you are coming from Pakistan and Bangladesh."

The entire political system against our fatherland.

Tsipras said it right today -- I agree with him -- all the parliamentary wings should unite, from far left to far right, to deal with Golden Dawn.

All of the wings of the parliament should unite on the issue of illegal immigrants, as they have been systemically doing all these years against Golden Dawn.

Golden Dawn, against everyone, continues this struggle.

And we will be the final victors because we are the ones who fight for a great and free Greece.

Filthy Capitalist French Government Press - Disseminates Propaganda Urging Europe to Submit to Invasion


Filthy Capitalist

French Government Press
Disseminates Propaganda Urging Europe to Submit to Invasion

'Some might be angels', huh?

Hey, who knows, there might even be a 'son of god' among them, right?

The Orthodox Patriarch (below), an ethnic Greek religious figure based in what is INVADED and CONQUERED CONSTANTINOPLE  imperial seat of the Roman Empire since 330 AD, that was destroyed by invading Turks as recently as 1453 (in a conquest that marked the final end of what remained of the 1,500 year old Roman Empire, as blood flowed in the city "like rainwater in gutters"), is advising Europe to surrender to modern-day invasion and conquer of Europe by non-Europeans, and mostly adherents of  an ideology that Europeans have resisted with their lives for HUNDREDS OF YEARS.
But as he's the same guy that has devoted his lifetime to the pointless, inexplicable, and most abasing, pursuit of worshipping a rabbi 'son of god' declared 'messiah' with 'magical powers' by deluded separatists of yet another Middle Eastern religion, it's obvious that this guy's strong point isn't reality testing.
Anyone that falls for the propaganda of this 'religion' for lemmings, masochists and lovers of abasement is an idiot.
This is purely propaganda and look who is covering it:  the French government news agency. 

What's the bet that the French politicians are the imperialist swines that are pursuing the agenda facilitating invasion of Europe, along with their US-Anglo partners-in-imperialist-crime, who do not give a f*ck about Europe.

If the French cared about Europe, they wouldn't have spent decades destroying France itself.  The same can be said of the British and what they've done to their own country.

Do not be moved by capitalist agenda serving propaganda from the press or from the priests -- even if they present joint persuasive theatre

What, are the Orthodox clergy shilling for the CIA now, as well as the Catholic clergy?  A$$holes.

Either way, these c*nts have done a deal with capitalists.

'Hugely symbolic', my ass. 

It's a huge piece of bullsh*t PROPAGANDA, Europe -- and a betrayal of Europe itself, the c*nts.

'Moral duty'? 

As if these creeps in bed with capitalism value 'morality' -- which is, in fact, subjective, in any case. 
There is most certainly no 'moral duty' to destroy oneself.
These 'holy' frauds, their fraud devotion, their fraud theatre media-spectacle, and their fraud 'moral duty' persuasion is staged to fool and exploit the ignorant ... which doesn't sound exactly moral, does it.

F*ck both of you, lying, manipulating a$$holes.
Europe's only moral duty:
SAVE EUROPE



Patriarch tells EU to open doors to migrants: 'some may be angels'
By AFP     5 hours ago in World

Orthodox Patriarch Bartholomew I has urged Europe to stop trying to divide economic migrants from asylum seekers as he prepares for Saturday's hugely symbolic visit to the Greek island of Lesbos alongside Pope Francis.

Reiterating that Christians have a moral duty to show hospitality to strangers, Bartholomew said in an interview published Friday that Europe should take inspiration from the generosity of Lesbos residents confronted with a mass influx to their island.

"This question puts me in mind of St Paul's letter to the Hebrews in which he reminds us not to forget hospitality because those who offer it have sometimes hosted angels without knowing it," Bartholomew told Italian daily Il Messaggero.

"Hospitality represents a concrete example of love for our neighbour and the way all Christians should live their lives."

The patriarch said Saturday's trip to the Greek island at the centre of the migrant crisis would "send a strong message in every direction".

Refugees use train carriage to smash police barricade on Greece-Macedonia border (VIDEO)

Published time: 11 Apr, 2016 16:43
Edited time: 11 Apr, 2016 23:49

As tensions at the Greek-Macedonian border continue to mount, a group of refugees has hijacked a train carriage at Idomeni station and attempted to use it to break through the police barricade.

Several hundred refugees pushed the wagon towards the border with their bare hands, having filled the carriage with rocks intended to be used as weapons against the police.

They were stopped by the Greek police, who eventually managed to persuade the crowd to move the train carriage to its original position.

Members of the group told RT’s Ruptly video agency that the seizing of the wagon was retaliation for brutal behavior by police guarding the border.

"Yesterday they oppressed us, hit us with tear gas, rubber bullets, five caliber. They detained 10 of our friends, took them, beat them up, they even broke some bones," a young man, who covered his face with a bandana, said.

Thousands of refugees on their way to Germany and other Northern European states set up an improvised camp in Idomeni after the Macedonian authorities decided to close the border with Greece.

Earlier in the day, Macedonian President Gjorge Ivanov responded to Greece's accusations of Macedonian police using excessive force against refugees who attempted to break through the border. He said that the Balkan route was shut down by an EU decision and urged Athens to respect it.

"[Macedonian] authorities have taken necessary measures – not taken by Greece – to prevent migrants from infiltrating into [our] territory en masse. I called upon the EU to help Greece evacuate the Idomeni camp where migrants try to make their way into our territory utilizing the corridor [Balkan route] closed under Brussels' decision," he told Greek TV channel Mega.

He also said that the Greek police shared no information on the rising tension in Idomeni. "Instead of delivering demarches, Greece's foreign ministry could update us on everything relating to the so-called volunteers in Idomeni who are behind all of the distributing leaflets in Arabic and preparing illegal border crossings into our territory."

Oh, FFS, Greece. Quit using this as a political weapon against Macedonia:  man up, grow some balls, and get with the program.  It's a US-led capitalist engineered invasion of Europe.

Jesus, these invaders need to be immediately placed in lock-up and immediately thereafter be shipped to right back to where they came from -- or straight to Obama and George Soros, which is probably one and the same.

What kind of morons allow an invasion of their nations?

Get out of the capitalist-serving nation destroying European Union ... ASAP. 
Invest is a strong sovereign state, supported by a strong national military and strong, uncompromising police-force ... along with electrified border fencing, land mines, helicopter and electronic surveillance, heavily armed guards, and anything else it takes to maintain border security.   Hell, go for nukes

There, that's better. 
Apologies for not being able to speak Greek and for not being able to work the microphone.

It's very nice to be in Athens.

I want to open by thanking the organisers for inviting me, for inviting our side, particularly thank, obviously, Intelligence Squared and also the British Council.

I should also say at the outset, I also feel rather sorry for our opponents tonight, who have been appallingly set up, clearly, by the motion that we have been given.

The motion that we are debating tonight is not whether or not the mosque should be built, the motion is that only good can come from building it.

And it seems to me, that the only people who could possibly believe that are people who are extraordinarily naive, people who are extraordinarily ignorant, or something altogether worse.

Now, I'm not a cultural relativist.

I don't believe that all civilisations are equal.  I don't believe all cultures are equal.  

That doesn't mean I don't believe we can't all get along.

But I don't believe that we have to pretend, among other things, in debating things like this evening's motion, that we do not ourselves in Europe have a history that we would wish to defend, a culture we might wish to be proud of and to protect, and even to make value judgements about other ideas, other religions, other cultures.

Now, it's my belief that Europe is based on the fundamental principles of Judeo-Christian civilisation and of Greek culture, and from this wonderful symbiosis of values, the history of Europe, the culture of Europe, has emerged.

I believe, furthermore, that states have the right to decide, to at least have a say, in their own future; that waves of illegal immigration do not mean that cultures which have had such immigration immediately have to concede to the incomers.

It's also, I should stress at the outset, is an important debate to have, because there is a problem that Europe is experiencing with Islam.  And I think we have to tackle this head-on.

Islam is a very, very complex thing.

Let nobody say that we on this side are essentialising Muslims, or generalising about Muslims, or aren't aware of the huge variety of practices and beliefs within Islam.

But to create a massive centre at public expense in Athens at this moment should at least be questioned.

We should at least be able to address whether or not it would seem to us to be like a good idea.

Let me give you an example -- from my own country, from Great Britain -- of this kind of thing going on, because in Britain we have many mosques, many Muslim organisations are funded by the government, and I wanted to give one example of the sort of thing which the Athens mosque might yet become on this benevolent idea that if the government is behind it, only good can come from it.

There's a mosque in London called East London Mosque.  The London Muslim Centre is attached to it. It has received a lot of public funding.  It's routinely hosting all sorts of great dignitaries, from the British political class -- and outside.

The American Ambassador in London recently graced it with a visit.  The shadow Justice Minister recently graced it with a visit.  The Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, graced it with a visit.  Even Prince Charles, the heir to the throne, is a regular.

There's a veritable drive time at this mosque.  It's hard to get to it for the number of dignitaries cars that are forever drawing up outside.

But is it the case that despite all of these grand official benedictions, it is a place from only which good can come?

No.  Not at all.

You just have to look at the type of people who preach there.

I'm just looking over the last few years.

Recently, Sheikh Khalid Yasin a popular preacher, who also preaches the virtues of public beheading, saying that it would be a grand thing to have in Britain because it would teach people not to murder if they saw heads rolling down the streets.

It's hosted Sheikh  Al-Sudais, who believes that Jews should be annihilated.

It's hosted Yasir Khadi, who's a holocaust denier.

It's hosted among others, Bilal Philips, who is a proponent of suicide bombing.

And it's also, perhaps most famously, hosted Anwar al-Awlaki, a man who is currently on the kill or capture list of that notorious hawk, President Obama.

Just earlier today in London, a young man called Rajib Karim, was convicted of an attempt to bring down airlines -- blow up airline planes -- with the assistance of that man, Anwar al-Awlaki.

So, it's clearly not the case that just because officialdom is involved that mosques are centres of wonder, loveliness and peacefulness, a sort of Anglican Church meets the Green movement.

[audience laughter]

It's also, I think worth noting, one or two of the oddities of Islam internationally at the moment and particularly in this regard.

Islam, when it is in a minority, is extremely good at talking about tolerance.

In a minority, Islam loves to talk about the tolerance that people must show towards the minorities.

One of the things, however, if you look around the world -- and I'm sure I don't need to tell you this -- is that whenever Islam is in the majority, minority rights are nowhere to be seen.

It's a one-directional talk of minority rights.

When Islam is in a minority, it talks of the importance of human rights.

When it is in a majority, those human rights -- including the most basic human rights, like the rights of women to be considered equal beings -- are thrown right out the window.

And I think we also have to bear in mind that there is a problem in the world today of the direction in which organised Islam across the globe is growing.

I think that there are many problems in the religion, as in most religions.

Most religions have problems of some type to get over.

But in Islam there is a particular problem of a magnetic literalism, which keeps on drawing people back to the violent tenets of the faith.

You'd better hope, ladies and gentlemen, that your mosque here is a first internationally and that nobody with any unpleasant statements -- any unpleasant ideas -- could possibly come to it.

You'd better hope that it's not like the US, for instance, where the Muslim Brotherhood movement, for instance, which Tariq's grandfather founded, recently was unearthed as saying that the job of Muslims was to make a civilisation conquest in the West.

You'd better hope, ladies and gentlemen, that nobody would agree with, for instance, with Prime Minister Erodogan -- not a minority, not an unimportant figure -- when he says the mosques are our barracks, the domes are helmets, the minarets are bayonets and the faithful are soldiers.

And, finally, you'd better hope that one of the most influential men today in Islamic terms, Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi wouldn't have anything to get near this mosque -- any excuse to get near it -- because he said just recently in a fatwa on the signs of victory of Islam:

     It means that Islam will return to Europe as a conqueror and a victor, after having been expelled from it twice.  Once from the south from Andalusia and a second time from the east, when it knocked several times on the doors of Athens.

Ladies and gentlemen, you don't have to be naives and you don't have to be ignorant to notice that knock is happening again, and you don't have to open the door to it.

Thank you.

[applause]

Athens Muslims to get a mosque
By Andrew Burroughs
BBC News, Athens
  • Ottoman mosque turned into museum
  • This Ottoman era mosque is now a museum
  • Plans for the first mosque in Athens since Turkish rule under the Ottoman empire have been given the go-ahead by the Greek parliament.
Over recent years immigration has brought hundreds of thousands of Muslims to the Greek capital.

But while freedom of worship is guaranteed by Greece's constitution as a member of the European Union, proposals for a new mosque have proved controversial in a country whose population is 96% Greek Orthodox.

There are mosques dating from Ottoman times in the old part of Athens known as Plaka. The Fethiye or victory mosque dates back to 1458. But today these buildings are for tourists not for Muslim prayers. One is now a museum of Greek folk art.

Athens is the only EU capital without a purpose-built place of worship for its Muslim population.

The city's 200,000 or so Muslims have been meeting in disused basements and whatever space the community can find.

Technically these buildings lack proper legal permission to function as places of worship, though the city authorities, aware of the problem, have allowed meetings to continue while a solution is sought.

Demonstrations

In the run-up to the Olympics, and under pressure to portray Greece as internationalist and conciliatory, the then socialist government chose a site for a Saudi-sponsored mosque and Islamic centre east of Athens to be visible from the international airport.

That provoked demonstrations by nearby residents of the staunchly conservative town of Peannia.

Today there's a small Greek Orthodox chapel on site, built to commemorate the protests which thwarted the mosque proposal. On special occasions a bell is rung, and on the hilltop a cross now defiantly looks towards the airport.

"We are Orthodox Christians here," says Angelo Kouias, a Peannia resident, involved in the protests. "We believe that when you arrive at the frontier of Greece it would be better to see a church to symbolise our country rather than a mosque."

"We don't want another Kosovo here close to Athens," says Dr Athanasius Papagiorgiou, a surgeon and president of the group which opposed the plan, the religiously conservative Association of St John. "Kosovo used to be a centre for the orthodox faith, and today it's nothing."

Lost privilege

Professor George Moustakis represents a different face of orthodoxy - a campaigner for interfaith understanding who joined a petition in favour of a mosque 17 years ago.

"I've always opposed the connection of church and state here in Greece, which has meant the church took the decision about other denominations and other faiths and their buildings for worship," he says.  [But for all his airy-fairy ideals, he is paving the way to connection of Islam to state]


"Parliament has now voted and the church lost that privilege. So there is no problem about the mosque, the government supports it, so does the Orthodox Church."  [All sold out to the Saudis?]

With the church veto gone and support from the current centre-right government, Naim El Ghandour - who in daily life imports high fashion fabric designs - is the man coordinating plans for a new mosque to be built in the north of Athens.

"The Muslims of Athens are Greek tax-payers and we have a right to pray in a respectful building," he says "We're asking the government for financial help. We're not looking for foreign sponsors, this will be a Greek mosque for Greek Muslims." [Solution:  live in Saudi Arabia & pray there.  Greeks are not Muslims.  All taxpayers are not equal.  No such thing as 'Greek Muslims'.  What a scam.  Greeks do not deserve the imposition of Islamic culture, religion and political power upon native Greeks, hundreds of years after fighting off Islamic invasion.]

The saga of the Athens mosque finds echoes elsewhere in Europe. The city of Grenada in Spain has just witnessed the opening of its first new mosque since the 15th Century when the Spanish re-conquered the Iberian peninsula from the Moorish Islamic rulers who built the historic mosques and palaces of Andalusia.  [Sacrilege.  I'm not religious, but I see this as a desecration.  A desecration of European territory, history, culture and society.]

The new mosque opened for worship only after two decades of objections from the local authorities on planning grounds.

And in Italy a mosque planned for seven years in Colle di Val d'Elsa in a picturesque corner of Tuscany has divided the local community. There the local authority supports the need for a mosque but there have been objections from residents.

It is a scenario likely to be repeated around the EU as the need for immigrant labour draws into the community those of a different faith, who then naturally wish to take up their equal right to a place of worship. [What, Latin America hasn't a population that would work in Europe?]

Greek neo-Nazi party protests Athens mosque


Shouting 'Greece belongs to the Greeks' and 'No mosque in Athens,' Golden Dawn's supporters stage rally

Some 700 members and supporters of Greek neo-Nazi party Golden Dawn protested Saturday against the construction of Athens' first official mosque, the state-run Athens News Agency reported.

Shouting "Greece belongs to the Greeks" and "No mosque in Athens", protesters gathered in the Eleonas neighborhood in central Athens where the mosque will be constructed, according to the agency.

Lawmaker Eleni Zaroulia -- the wife of Golden Dawn leader Nikos Michaloliakos -- and three more of the party's elected deputies reportedly participated in the protest.

Michaloliakos is currently in pre-trial detention, charged with running a criminal organisation following a musician's murder by one of the group's supporters in September.

In November, the government announced that a Greek consortium had been chosen to lead the construction of Athens' first mosque, 13 years after plans were first announced.

Five previous attempts to find a business group to back the project had failed.

Athens is one of the few European capitals without an official mosque, but in recent years several non-official places of worship have appeared in the Greek capital thanks to an increasing numbers of immigrants from countries such as Pakistan. [One of the few European capitals without an official mosque?  No wonder the clerics are issuing victory fatwas.]

In 2011, the Greek government was forced to adopt a law ensuring the mosque's construction.

But concerns over where to place the mosque and protests from the far right led to the failure of five contract tenders.

The only official mosques in Greece are situated in the northeast region of Thrace, where a minority group of Muslim Turks live.

Construction of First Mosque in Athens to Start Soon
By Philip Chrysopoulos -
Aug 5, 2015
Construction of the first mosque in Athens will start as soon as final details of the much-delayed project are ironed out and the building permit is about to be issued.

It has been seventy years since it was decided to build a mosque in Athens. The delays have been a constant source of tension with the Muslim world. The Organisation of Islamic Cooperation has been highly critical of the delays, with the Minister of Culture, Education and Religious Affairs Aristides Baltas stressing that these delays are used to defame Greece. ['seventy years' must be a mistake.  must be 7 years. / So Greece is being *bullied* into mosque building, given 'tensions with the Muslim world'.  Greece, tell them you'll comply when there's a magnificent church of victory erected in Mecca.]

In recent years the tender for the construction had been repeated five times and a successful bidder was selected in November 2013. The project has a budget of 964,000 euros and it will be constructed on a plot of land owned by the Greek Navy. It is located in the area of Eleonas in Athens where a former Navy workshop building will be converted into a mosque.

The last detail remaining is the settlement of a stream that should not cause any more delays.

The building of the Athens mosque is one of the priorities of the SYRIZA government and Alexis Tsipras has promised that he will complete it. The project, however, is met with many reactions from the Greek Orthodox Church. Metropolitan Bishop of Piraeus Seraphim has appealed to stop the construction.

COMMENT


About to watch the full video, having seen a clip of Melanie Phillips speak on the subject. 

Initial impression:  Western civilisation is finished.  Europe is finished.

The British Council is in the service of Saudi Arabia.
Project 'Our Shared Europe' is a joke.  Especially coming from a nation that has allowed this to develop:
 Britain
White Flight
Muslim Enclaves in Britain
Sharia Courts / No Go Areas, Britain

Neocon agenda British Council propaganda serves the interests of  those that do not have to live with the consequences of their demented policies -- yet.
Europe permitted itself to be flooded by Muslim immigration and has dutifully permitted construction of mosques, while Athens is the sole remaining European capital that hasn't capitulated to Saudi Arabia -- and that presumably includes even Moscow, which recently opened a mosque.
Greece is being bullied into constructing an Islamic edifice, despite the obvious and understandable opposition of the Greek people.

Saudi Arabia is behind this mosque project and is most likely behind all the mosque projects in Europe, as radical Islamic clerics issue fatwas declaring victory of Islam over Europe.

The EU is an organisation that promotes the interests of foreign entities and the destruction and Islamisation of Europe.
Europe needs to reconfigure -- fast.



Putin Opens New Mosque in Moscow Amid Lingering Intolerance


By NEIL MacFARQUHARSEPT. 23, 2015

President Vladimir V. Putin of Russia spoke on Wednesday about Islam and the war in Syria at the opening of Moscow’s largest mosque.

MOSCOW — Against rather long odds, including a hostile mayor, a vocal constituency irritated by Muslim rituals, and criminal rackets loath to see valuable real estate lost to charitable organizations, Moscow inaugurated a glittering, elaborate new mosque on Wednesday.

It took 10 years to come to fruition, in fact. The opening was a singular event in a city where a wave of bombings by Muslim extremists that started around 2000 generated an animosity toward the faith that never entirely abated.

Flanked by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey and Mahmoud Abbas, the president of the Palestinian Authority, President Vladimir V. Putin used his speech at the inauguration of the mosque, which he called the biggest mosque in Europe, to emphasize that Russia would develop its own system of religious education and training to counter extremism.

http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/24/world/europe/putin-opens-moscows-most-elaborate-mosque.html?_r=0



Hey, Vlad, this the same Recep Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey who declared and was convicted & imprisoned in 1998:

mosques are our barracks, the domes are helmets, the minarets are bayonets and the faithful are soldiers.

What a f*cking sell-out for gas pipes, Russia.

And it's destined to blow up in your face spectacularly.
Russia thinks it can appease Islam with 'religious education and counter-extremism training'.

Just as Europe is finished, Russia is finished.

Bibi, nuke the planet.  lol
